本书作者是语篇研究领域卓有建树的学者.他以四种语言出版的Discouse Studies: An Itroductory Textbook(1993)在学界受到广泛欢迎。 In 1992 I published my first introduction, Discourse Studies:
An Introductory Textbook, which was reprinted several times and
published in four languages. It has been the basis for this book
but the enormous number of discourse studies publications and new
insights of the past decade that have been incorporated here make
this a very different book with over 300 source references and
about 500 basic concepts explained. This book touches on various
disciplines that previously did not consider discourse, and the
broader, dynamic, contexts of discourse in communication science.
